FARINA CROUSTADES.

Put one quart of water in double boiler and add one teaspoonful of salt; when scalding hot stir in gradually one and one half cupful of farina; let it cook till very thick; then spread out on a flat buttered dish about one and one half inches thick; when perfectly cold cut with a round cutter and scoop out some of the center so as to make a sort of cup; brush over with the yolk of egg and set in oven till a delicate brown.

For filling, cut into dice, three hard boiled eggs, season with salt, cayenne, and chopped parsley; add two tablespoonfuls of mushrooms cut in half; mix with enough well seasoned brown sauce to moisten well; fill the little croustades and serve; pass more of the filling or sauce in a gravy boat.
